When will videographers LEARN to just show the whole dang dancer the WHOLE time!

The combination of Alessandra Ferri and Christopher Wheeldon is nothing short of sheer divinity! I never get tired of watching her dance. She will always be my favorite Juliet♥️

[@charlesTBear]

This is so right for Alessandra. I don’t think anyone will take her place in my eyes. Craig is just perfect for her as well. Beautiful

[@Jayjen35]

Ah! Craig Hall is such a beautiful dancer!

HYPNOTICALLY BEAUTIFUL ~~~

[@hasnahgrundy7368]

The title is so apt, such sensitive expression to natures creativity, as if watching Lily of the Valley grow in slower motion ,to catch the scent , and know she made it. Thank you so very much, daring bare beauty.

Grande fluidità in questo balletto che predilige la scelta di accattivanti positure figurali realizzate attraverso una motilità corporea praesens e con accordi d'ensemble efficaci.Molto bravi. BIGHIN GIULIO RENZO

[@allthingsballet]

This score by Arvo Part has been used by multiple choreographers

[@BytomGirl]

Correction, Silvie and Part

[@josephpalla3294]

The camerawork on this is killing me. Those closeups. Ugh.

[@allthingsballet]

I know, it is terrible. TV direction is by Patrizia Carmine

[@crystal12342]

[@josephhuth3714]

I love the camerawork.

[@crystal12342]

@@allthingsballet but i should be thankful that you video it.

[@allthingsballet]

@@crystal12342 oh, thank you!! 🙏

[@BalletomaneM]

The camera absolutely ruins this, I can't enjoy it because of it.

[@janettucker3196]

As soon as the camera closed up on their arms, I am out. I want to see the whole dance, not scattered bits some one thinks I should see that somehow will make the dance more interesting. The camera ruins choreography.
